I don't think there's  quick and easy way of doing this, but...

rpm -qa | grep -i "\.fc4"

Should list any left over packages from fc4. IIRC one of them is lvm for 
example. Remove these, then yum install them again to get the fc5 
versions. You should probably be able to similar things for other repos 
too like livna

rpm -qa | grep -i "\.lvn4"

etc etc...
